Plot[]
Part One: Natasha arrives back on the street with some scores to settle. Her first stop is the salon, where she tells David that he's seriously disturbed and not in Tina's league. Vinnie accuses the Websters of encouraging Sophie and Sian's behaviour. Furious Kevin threatens him and Vinnie leaves, disowning Sian. Janet stays to talk calmly. Jack arrives at No.9 and asks to stay a while. Natasha next finds Leanne in the bookies and blames her for her split with Nick. Leanne's stunned. Peter arrives and is puzzled when Natasha suggests he openly asks Leanne if she loves him. Natasha's next port of call is the factory. In front of everyone, he tells Nick how he's wrecked her heart and then causes a sensation when she spitefully reveals the unpleasant descriptions Nick uses for Carla, Sean and the girls. She tells Nick she's done it because of Leanne.
Part Two: Peter quizzes Leanne about Natasha's visit. She's panicking but manages to pacify him. The factory staff are extremely upset and Nick struggles to defend himself against the backlash. Carla gives the workers the afternoon off to keep them sweet. Tyrone tries to find out why 's come to visit. He's clearly concerned about something but makes excuses. Natasha calls at the medical centre making Gail feel uncomfortable as she sees to Betty. Sally takes umbrage when Janet suggests that Sophie's lacking in moral guidance. Rosie arrives home and inflames the situation when she talks about her job. Sally's furious and Janet walks out. Norris suspects Tina of being behind Rita's credit card fraud. Trevor suggests a romantic night for two but Carla dismisses the idea. Trevor leaves, annoyed. Norris takes a call from his bank and learns that he too has been the victim of fraud. Norris is certain that Tina and Graeme are in on it together. Rita thinks he's talking nonsense. Natasha lays into Gail. She loudly mentions that Gail illegally accessed her medical files. Dr Carter overhears and challenges her. Sian thanks Sally for sticking by her. Sally tearfully admits to Kevin that she hates Sophie and Sian's relationship and will never get used to it. Gail defends herself but Dr Carter sacks her on the spot. Natasha departs in triumph however as she climbs into a taxi, she fights back tears after spotting Nick gazing at Leanne. She leaves the street.
